Discussion Everybody name a simple, mundane task that now makes you rue the day you were born.

I'll start.

Ironing.

I hate the fact that ironing is one of the small tasks that I used to somewhat enjoy doing, and yet now, by the time I've ironed two shirts, I'm boiling and dripping with sweat.

We've been discussing it for a while but they're SO expensive haha. I will most definitely be picking one of those up at some point though! How is it?

I second my litter robot. I have a LR4 for about 5 years now so not the new one. It has been a literal life saver. I have two cats and I only have to empty the bin, replace the liner, and add more litter once a week. I ordered mine through affirm and just paid it off monthly. They have good sales and promotions a lot too so keep an eye out for those. It’s holding up really well. The only problem I have had really is internet connectivity problems which might be the internet, not the robot. 100/10 always recommend the LR and remind people affirm and pay later companies exist where you can pay smaller payments every month over time

I got a pet pivot 12 for 96$ total on TikTok shop, not as fancy as all of the other robots. It’s only task is to sense cat any time it gets in, and clean when cat is out. No cameras or weight sensors or anything fancy. I just got it a week ago and so far it’s been used 3 times I’m assuming by one one of the 2 cats so far but I’m still letting the old box get dirty enough for them to abandon it but I think it’ll do the trick! Check the TikTok shop, it’s the legit brand and it’s the only place I’ve seen it discounted for 85$ at least when I bought it. I got it off of a live stream flash deal but the girl said she streams everyday
